Both acordarse de and recordar can be used to translate to remember (used transitively), provided the object of remember is not another verb. Recordar is becoming less common, however, in everyday informal contexts:

Do you remember where he lives?¿Te acuerdas de dónde vive?;¿Recuerdas dónde vive?

Use acordarse de + infinitive to translate to remember to + verb:

Did you remember to close the door?¿Te acordaste de cerrar la puerta?

Don't use recordar for remembering to do sth.

Use recordar + perfect infinitive/clause or acordarse de + clause to translate to remember + -ing:
